Quotes: Mike Pelfrey – About Last Night
Mike Pelfrey, who allowed just one run and truck out six over 7.2 IP – his longest outing of the season, talked with reporters after last night’s win against the Marlins, and had the following to say about:
On his preformance:
“I know if go out there and pound the strikezone and use all my pitches to get ahead I know can go deep in the game. I try not to walk anybody and do my thing.”
On Omir Santos‘ ability behind the plate:
“He does a good job of calling a good game. He knows the hitters. He mixes it up and doesn’t get caught up and trying to throw a sinker. He wants me use my secondary stuff, which makes my fastball better.”
Since returning from the disabled list on April 25th, Pelfrey has allowed three runs or less in each of his seven starts, pitching to a 2.93 ERA.
